LT Artist
Painter's portfolio theme for Elementor: paintings drawn to scale on the studio wall, a room sheet with sizes and red dots, available work, commissions and open studio days.
Key features
- The studio wall, to scaleThe home page opens with this month's paintings hung on a centre line in true proportion to their size, with a one-metre scale bar.
- A room sheet with red dotsEvery painting has a number, an italic title, year, medium, size and price; sold paintings get the gallery's red dot.
- Available paintings and seriesOriginals shown on equal patches of wall so small studies look small, series pages and a record of sold work.
- Commissions with sizes to scaleFour standard canvas sizes drawn to scale with example prices, the four steps of a commission and common questions.
- One-page mode (Pro)Switch the menu to scroll links for the home page sections, with smooth scrolling and the current section highlighted.
- Free Elementor and a ready enquiry formEvery page is built with free Elementor widgets on Hello Elementor, with a painting enquiry form made with the free WPForms Lite plugin. Fonts are bundled: no Google Fonts requests.
Let an AI assistant do the routine work
You can ask an AI assistant such as Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor to change texts, add pages or check your set-up, as our block themes already allow. Here is what this template gives you for that.
- AI kit Included with Pro Unlimited A file that explains the template to your AI assistant, ready prompts for common edits, and a checker that reports mistakes before you publish.

Questions
Do I need Elementor Pro?
No. LT Artist uses only the free Elementor plugin and the free Hello Elementor theme. The header and footer are part of the theme, so you do not need Theme Builder.
How do I add my own paintings at the right size?
Swap the image and give it the size class for its centimetres (for example lt-s-70×90). On the hero wall, set the painting's container width to its width divided by 440 cm. The AI kit explains both steps.
How do I mark a painting as sold?
Change its price line to the Sold line with the red dot, and add the class is-sold to the painting on the hero wall. The room sheet and the wall then agree.
Will my site look like the demo?
Yes, with Pro: Appearance > Demo import creates every page, the colours, fonts, menu, header and footer. The demo photos are replaced by placeholders you swap for your own paintings.
What is the difference between Free and Pro?
Free has the design, header and footer, the Studio and Contact pages and the blog. Pro adds the home page, Paintings and Commissions pages, sample posts, one-click demo import, credit removal, updates and support. Pro Unlimited adds the AI kit.
I have the old LT Artist. Is this an update?
It is a new version 2.0 with a new design, built for free Elementor. Your current site keeps working; install 2.0 on a new site or a staging copy and import the demo there.
